I am so glad that I went ahead an bought this. I needed a small portable computer that I could take to a number of places to work on ongoing projects. I wanted something that would be smaller, lightweight, have an attached keyboard, functioning USB ports and enough memory to be able to use multiple internet pages at the same time while utilizing OneDrive to create documents. I bought this hoping for the best, I mean given the price tag I was almost certain that I would be handing it off to my sister for my little nephew to play games on, but nope! Mine all mine!!! I waited to review until I had used in all of the capacities that I required and it has done all that I needed and then some! Super lightweight and handy, I can have it on my leg while balancing papers to review on the other while waiting for appointments. It quickly accesses the internet and has worked wonderfully in tandem with OneDrive and other internet functions. I could not be happier. BTW because of the extra USB ports (3) I was able to attach a remote mouse and it works seamlessly also. Did I saw that I am Happy?!?!
As an academic and a Google Head, I've really enjoyed this device. It is lightweight, does not have a fan under the bottom, and doesn't generate a lot of heat. I've been impressed with the battery life and the charging rate. The processor isn't the most powerful in the world, so complicated software like TD Ameritrade's Trade Architect tends to stall. If you are working on the web, answering emails, and creating Google Docs, it works flawlessly.
Sweet little Chromebook. My husband is very happy with it.
Note, this is our first refurbished product. The only disappointment was we didn't read the description clearly and discovered the need to buy a power cord for the Chromebook after it had arrived.
I've had no problems as of yet,and i don't think i will.i like this chromebook alot.its just what an old factory rat needs.
I bought this refurbished Chromebook in Oct 2017. I, intentionally, waited until Dec 2017 to give a review...in case anything happened. It's worked flawlessly. I love this Chromebook. It's better than described. Excellent condition. The keyboard has taken some getting used to, but overall no complaints!

Very nice lil Chromebook. Make sure you get one with lots of built in RAM like this model of you want good performance.
Going back to school and needed a cheap laptop. This is really "barebones" for a computer; however, it meets my needs. Loads quickly, long battery life, and responsive. When I'm feeling unproductive, it plays Netflix and games well.
Thrilled with the quality and features at the price point. Syncs with my phone, and plethora of Google related accounts. Tough enough to hold up under the unintentional abuse of a 5 year old. Battery stays up under heavy use for hours on end. Streams video seamlessly. May not be top of the line, but certainly not the bottom of the barrel.
Purchased this for my teen who just entered high school. She didnt want a laptop for fear of crushing it in her overrun backpack or dropping it, so this was a happy medium. For a refurb, I'm impressed. There are some oddities with the quality of the screen, making me wonder if they had to patch it up some kind of way during the refurb of the one I got. It doesn't hinder the Chromebook at all, it's just weird if you look at it from a certain angle. Outside of that, it's fast, fairly light weight and the battery life is great. I plan on purchasing one for myself for more casual internet use instead of breaking out my laptop.
I purchased this Chromebook for my schoolwork, and it has been absolutely amazing! For the price of $160, you can get a rugged and fairly lightweight, ergonomic computer that handles web-based tasks like typing essays, creating powerpoints, and watching videos beautifully! The Chromebook also has access to the Google PlayStore, so it isn't difficult at all to have some sort of games/entertainment applications. The battery life on this refurbished Chromebook is well over 10 hours and easily lasts a whole school day. My Chromebook has been holding up very well, and I am very happy with this purchase.
